Dans la Nuit


I came across the image below after clicking on a bad link at Warner Bros.’ French site last month for my review of The Artist.

The words 'Erreur 404' shown in huge letters on a hillside like the Hollywood sign, followed by 'Page Non Trouvée'

The studio probably has an “Error 404 / Page Not Found” message spelled out like the Hollywood sign in English on its domestic site, of course, and that would be a moment’s amusement at best; versions of the most mundane things in other languages than one’s own, however, even if they’re somewhat familiar, can seem... weird. N’est-ce pas?

And speaking of French, I’ve had a brief Slate interview with Tarran Killam on the origins of “Les Jeunes de Paris” sitting around for about a year.
